General Dynamics [GD] C4Systems yesterday said that, effective Jan. 1, Sandra Wheeler will become vice president of Tactical Networks.

Wheeler will lead the teams responsible for the continuous development and fielding of the Army’s Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T), the cornerstone program of the Army’s network modernization plan, which provides unprecedented voice, video and data for commanders and soldiers.

“Sandra’s experience in managing large programs and her in-depth understanding of our customers’ mission and critical needs will ensure the continued success of this extremely important Army capability,” said Chris Marzilli, president of General Dynamics C4 Systems.

Wheeler has been with General Dynamics C4 Systems for more than 32 years holding increasingly responsible positions. Most recently, she led the business development and strategic marketing efforts for the company’s Secure Communications and Computing Technologies organization, producer of AN/PRC-154 Rifleman and AN/PRC-155 Manpack radios under the Army’s Handheld Manpack and Small Form Fit (HMS) networking radios program.
